WHO are you prior to all thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and labels?
You are NOT your thoughts. You are what is AWARE of your thoughts.
Stay with this awareness, and whatever thoughts may come are of no matter since you recognize that none are you.
What does it matter if a thought comes that says you are a genius or an idiot, if neither one is you?
The reason most people on the planet are so unhappy is because they have forgotten their true nature.
And so they seek to find their identity within their mind, i.e., they believe they are their thoughts. But this would be like putting flight simulation software into a computer, and the computer suddenly thinking it was an airplane! But it gets worse. Because the computer's sensors detect that something isn't right, that it's not a very good airplane, the computer thinks, "Well, I'm just not trying hard enough." And so, it tries even harder to be something it isn't!? Sounds crazy, doesn't it? And yet, we humans do this to ourselves all the time. (To be continued. -Michael)

Death
is a stripping away of all that is not you. The secret of life is to
"die before you die"—and find that there is no death. -Eckhart Tolle
If the time spent thinking about objects not the self were spent inquiring into the Self, Self realization would be achieved in a very short time. - Ramana Maharshi
